Why does earth rotates on its axis?

Question

Why does earth rotates on its axis?

Answer 1

the earth rotate on its axiss is because it create day time and night time. and it is in universal gravity.

Answer 2

To get to the other side.  Duh Duh Dum Pchoo!

Answer 3

Why do you breath daily?

Honestly you were humiliating your by asking that question

Sorry for being harsh on you but can’t you just Google it

I knew the answer to that question when I was in Fifth grade.

No offence.

Well here is the answer

The angular momemtum of pretty much the whole solar system is in that direction. All the planets revolve that way, the sun rotates that way, and almost all of the planets rotate that way. Venus is the odd exception, and it rotates backward, but very slowly. The primordial stuff that eventually coalesced into the solar system was on average moving that way when it started, so that's the way it rotates still.

Answer 4

The earth rotates on its axis to give us the charm of the day and the night as well.

Answer 5

coz v dont rotate on our axis

Answer 6

It rotates around it self to conserve the angular momentum and energy. Not to get on the otherside.

Answer 7

conservation of angular momentum.  The cloud of gas and dust that made up our solar system had a small net amount of rotation to it (as all clouds of gas do just by turbulence and random chance).  As it condensed, the angular momentum was conserved according to the laws of physics.  Just like an ice skater speeding up when pulling in his/her arms, that little bit of rotation in a giant cloud becomes relatively fast orbital and rotational movement in the planets of the solar system.  Notice that most of the planets orbit and rotate in the same direction in approximately the same plane.  That's not coincidence and it's not to "create nigth and day".  That's because they were all created from the same cloud of stuff.

Answer 8

To create day and night. To pass time, and to create days that build up the history.

Answer 9

The earth rotates on its axis to cause days and nights.

Answer 10

its bcoz of centrifugal force......tat might have been exerted during the formation of solar system...it still persisits as per newton's 1st law!!
